Absolutely LOVED your post. I am 5'7", 47 and weigh 122 pounds and I will tell all of you that it is still a daily struggle to stay that weight (I've been here since 2005). I still have to make the right choices every day (thank God for Netrition,com!!) but have to laugh at a lot of the ads on this forum: "Lose weight without dieting, It's not your fault your fat, it's your cortisol level. Everybody wants a pill, not the work involved. Someone on another forum has the following siggy: "Being fat is hard, losing weight is hard, maintaining weight loss is hard. Pick your hard."
